Default 17x10 +44 square

I bought the evasive 17x10 +44 to clear my BBK. I thought it was a popular choice from reading. After I installed them I am questioning the rear. After searching it seems few are running +45 in the rear. Only seen one with +44 square. Is it possible to run these in the rear. I don't care if I need to pull pull and pull. Just want to be to fit. No over fenders (yet). Just stock body.

They will fit on the rear. Probably just need more camber What it is set at now? I would think at least 2.5 would be needed possible 3. The fronts are the harder one to fit as these are aggressive for the front and that will need more flaring than the rear.

manga is right. The front fitment is the bigger issue. You will need to pull the fronts a good amount to accommodate this width/offset. The rear just needs the standard fender mods and a liberal amount of camber -2.5/-3.

The reason you see 10+45 on the rear is because BBK clearance is not an issue and the face concaves more. It is a more appealing design to me personally and those without BBKs have run +45 all around as well.

No clue on the rear camber. Still in the putting the car back together stages. I thought I had the camber bolt max out though. It still on stock shocks with some suspension techniques springs (car come that way) the car is sitting super high in the rear right now. Don't know why.

You're fine.

It's a standard size selection for the S2K Challenge guys with 255 square tires. Aftermarket fenders are not needed. just run 2.5 degrees of camber or more. Roll and a bit more pulling. They fit, but require a bit more work than something like an RPF-1 in 17x9 +45.

Thanks everyone for the reassurance. I took my shock off the one rear and it sucks in a lot once it reaches a certain point. Now I can roll and pull to where I need. With my shock on I have a two finger gap right now. So it look like it wouldn't work.

He nailed it...but yes the fitment is essentially the same as a +45.
